Abstract

A crane apparatus and method are described for lifting a heavy load such as a wind turbine generator unit 46 on to a wind turbine tower 1. The crane is designed to climb up cables 3 attached to the top of the tower carrying with it the cables 45 and lifting gear 31 which will be required for the main lifting operation. The crane comprises a pair of jib frames 20 with boom arms 26 27 which can be retracted during lifting and then deployed to a pivotable loadbearing position once the crane is mounted at the top of the tower 1. Hydraulic strand jacks 31 and heavy duty strands 45 are preferably used for the heavy lifting. In a preparation step a load bearing bracket assembly 13 14 to which the jib frames 20 will be secured is hoisted up and fitted to the top of the tower 1. Once the lifting operations are complete the crane assembly and the bracket assembly 13 14 are lowered from the tower 1 and removed from site.
